    PARSONAGE OF ST. PAUL'S
CHURCH GREATLY IMPROVED
The parsonage of the St. Paul's
Evangelical church in this eity
has just been thoroughly repair
ed and repapered and now pre
sents a very handsome appear
ance, both on the interior and ex
terior. The floors in the home
have been waxed and finished in
a manner that makes the rooms
very cool and comfortable in ap
pearance. Most of the work on
the parsonage was done by
John Vaidran and Herman Tieket
Jer, and their work speaks well
for his ability as'a decorator. The j
house has been painted a very
handsome shade of gray on the
exterior and the property adds
greatly to the appearance of Vine
street, where it is located. The
church members may well be
proud of their properly, both the
church, which is one of the hand
somest church edifices in the city,
and the parsonage, which has just
been put in first-class shape.

SOME PAINFUL ACCIDENTS
TO PEOPLE LIVING IN UNION
. Joseph Everett, residing a few
miles northeast of town, was the
victim of an accident last Satur
day that will disable him for some
time. He was riding on a load of
hay and the wagon turned over,
and in the fulling the hay rack
caught Joe and gave him some
very severe bruises, one of which
was a fracture of a bone below
I lie knee and a slight fracture at
Hie knee joint. Oilier injuries
were not so serious, but he has
enough of tliern to keep him
"lied up" from his work for some
time ") '

A Good Investment.
W. I). Magli, a well known
merchant of Whitemound, Wis.,
bought a stock of Chamberlain's
medicine so as to be able to sup
ply them to his customers. After
receiving them he was himself
taken sick and says that one small
boll It; of Chamberlain Colic,
Cholera and Diarrhoe Remedy was
worth more to him than the cost
of his entire stock of these medi
cines. For sale by all Dealers.

IMPROVEMENTS AT THE
A. J. TRILITY HOME
One of the pleasing improve
ments that has added much to the
appearance of South Fifth street
is the concrete wall that ha3 been
placed by A. T. Trilety along his
property at the corner of Fifth
and Pearl streets. Mr. Trilety,
who owns the residence on the
corner, is also the owner of the
vacant lot on the west of his home
and the new concrete vyall extends
the whole half block along. Pearl
making a very substantial im
provement to the property, as well
as the general appearance of the
street. Such enterprise is cer
tainly commendable and Mr. Tril
ety is to be congratulated on the
completion of the work, which
was done by McMaken & Son in
their usual satisfactory manner.

ON TO 1SSACHUSE1TES
Word has just been received in
this city by the Wescott family
from C. E. Wescott that after a
short stay in Chicago he would,
in company with his grandson,
Master Mason Wescott, continue
their trip on to Massachusetts,
the native state of Mr. Wescott.
This wilLbe a most enjoyable trip,
as they will visit Montreal, Can
ada, and enjoy a voyage down the
Hudson river to Saratoga, New
York, from where they will go to
Pitfleld, Massachusetts, for a visit
there. This will certainly be a
fine opportunity for Master Mason
to complete his record as a travel
er, as ho will have then traveled
clear across the continent, as he
spent last summer at Los Angeles
wilh his grandparents, and the
present trip will bring him tothe
Atlantic coast. There are not
many young boys who are given
(his opportunity.

RAY HILLBUBR STEALS
MONEY AT PACIFIC JUNCTION
From Friday's Dally.
We note the following among
the Pacific Junction items in the
Glenwood Tribune: Ray Millbern,
a Plattsmouth youth, charged
with stealing a pocketbook, was
captured the first of the week by
Marshal Johnson after he had
chased him down the Burlington
tracks south seven miles. The
young man acknowledged the theft
and preparations were being
made to arraign him in a juvenile
court when it was learned that he
was from the Nebraska city and
that he had already been sentenc
ed to a term in the Nebraska state
reform school at Kearney. The
young man entered a residence in
the north part of the Junction and
stole a purse containing $8.35.
The loss was soon discovered and
through quick work on the part
of the local olllcc-r the young fel
low was caught. He was im
mediately turned over to the Ne
braska officers.
HUE PEERY INJUBEO
WHILE PLAYING BALL
From Friday's Daily.
Last evening Hallie Perry, while
practicing base ball at the Booster
park, received an injury that will
interfere with his playing for
some time at least. Hallie was
playing second base and was field
ing the balls which were being
batted to him, and as a grounder
struck the diamond in front of
him attempted to catch it and
misjudged the direction the ball
was going to take, with the result
that it struck him just above the
right eye and cut a gash several
inches long, which required (he
services of a physician and sev
eral stitches to close. He will
wear his eye in mourning for
some time as a result of the accident.

INQUIRYABQUTA BOQX PUB
LISHEDHERE YEARS AGO
One of our local attorneys has
just received a letter from parties
in Kansas City inquiring whether
it would be possible to secure a
copy of a book supposed to have
been published in this city which
contained the lieage of the family
of James Spencer. The book was
published in this city, it was
claimed, by James Spencer Mat
thews, who resided here several
years ago, and a copy is greatly
desired by the Kansas City
parlies, as I hey are desirous of
printing a sketch of the Spencer
family and the work contains
some very valuable facts needed
by them. A diligent search at the
public library failed to unearth
the volume, but the parties writ
ing the letter thought that a num
ber of the books had been dis
posed of among the citizens here.

Some time ago D. K. Riley, an
agent for the National Fidelity &
Causality Co., was working
through this county soliciting in
surance and secured a large num
ber of policies and he failed to
turn in the money secured on a
number of them and left this part
of the country. The insurance
company, as soon as they learned
the truth of the matter, at once
got busy and the man was ap
prehended at Nelson, Neb., and
brought back to this city and
lodged in jail to answer to the
charge of embezzlement. He was
arraigned in the county court a
few days ago and received a fine
of $25 and costs, which ho set
lied for, as well as the sum of
$100 which he turned over to the
company at Omaha, and he was
released. The company has made
i every policy written by Riley good
and the policy-holders have not
lost a cent on the trouble of Riley
